The Nunu Quest Begins
I admit, this is a situation I am not used to. I've always been kind of an up or down, win some lose some kind of player, but I've never felt like I was really...at a disadvantage before.
But that's okay! Because I can adapt and change, just like I always tell everyone else on these boards. No crying to Riot, no demanding rune updates or anything. I already did that before the preseason and look where it got me. No, I can fix this on my own. Riot shipped these new runes to Live so there must be some secret strategy that I'm just too Bronze to see.
So, here we go. I'm officially retiring Guardian for right now and moving on to the mystery gem of the expansion: Unsealed Spellbook. I know that the playtesters have said this is the best keystone for junglers by far, but I haven't really see its popularity spike at all over the last few days. At least not in Normals.
I was hesitant to go full Inspiration because I actually really like the Resolve minor runes and don't want to give any of them up, but here we go. This is the page I'm currently running:
Inspiration + Resolve (+20% Elixir and Potion Duration, +145 Health) Unsealed Spellbook - Gain a Summoner Spell charge at 2 min and every 6 min after. You can use a charge to swap Summoner Spells at the shop. Additionally, you gain 25% CDR on Summoner Spells. Perfect Timing - You get a free Stopwatch. Reduce the cooldown of Gargoyle Stoneplate by 15%. Magical Footwear - You get Boots at 10 minutes. They give you +10 MS and reduce the cost of upgrading them by 50 gp. Celestial Body - You gain +100 Health. Until 10 minutes, you deal 10% less damage to champions and jungle monsters.
Overgrowth - Gain 0.2% bonus maximum health for each 8 minions/monsters that die near you. Conditioning - After 10 minutes, gain +8 armor and MR, and an additional +5% armor and MR.
Going to finish work and then play this build all night. I'm particularly concerned about how Celestial Body will affect my clear speed, but as true damage cannot be reduced I'm hoping Consume + low Smite CD will counteract this.
If anyone has any suggestions, let me know, please!
